SPEAKERSDiana West, BA, IBCLC, is an international board certified lactation consultant (IBCLC) in New Jersey and La Leche League Leader. She has published many books, including “Sweet Sleep: Nighttime and Naptime Strategies for the Breastfeeding Family,” the 8th edition of “The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding,” “The Breastfeeding Mother’s Guide to Making More Milk (currently under contract for a second edition!),” “Breastfeeding after Breast and Nipple Procedures,” “Defining Your Own Success: Breastfeeding after Breast Reduction Surgery,” and ILCA’s popular “Clinician’s Breastfeeding Triage Tool.” Diana has also co-authored a research article with a team led by Trevor MacDonald and Joy Noel-Weiss about trans men’s experiences with lactation and gender identity.

Marsha Walker, RN, IBCLC, is a registered nurse and international board certified lactation consultant. She maintained a large clinical practice at a major HMO in Massachusetts, is a published author and an international speaker. Consulting with hospitals, providing in-service presentations, speaking at conferences and workshops and advocating for breastfeeding at the state and federal levels occupy her professional time. She is currently the chair of the board of directors of the Massachusetts Breastfeeding Coalition, and sits on the board of directors of Baby Friendly USA, Best for Babes Foundation, and the US Lactation Consultant Association (USLCA). She is the Executive Director of the National Alliance for Breastfeeding Advocacy and a past president of the International Lactation Consultant Association.

Alia Macrina Heise, IBCLC, has worked in the field of lactation since 2004. She is considered the international authority on the topic of dysphoric milk ejection reflex (D-MER). She has been the forerunner in identifying, naming and investigating the anomaly of dysphoria with milk ejection reflex since 2007. She has spoken on the subject at many notable conferences, including GOLD, has given several interviews on the subject for both print and podcasts and has been published through her work on a case study about D-MER for The International Breastfeeding Journal. In 2017 she released the first book on the subject. Alia’s passion and enthusiasm for the topic of D-MER are evident in the energy that she demonstrates in her presentations and the novelty of new information on a subject that is not yet well known or understood by many makes for an engaging and interesting presentation. Outside of her work with D-MER, she is also in private practice as an IBCLC in the Finger Lakes region of New York. She lives in a small rural town where she enjoys country living with her three children.
